Mine gets Sorn throughout the winter but a year will soon pass & then you'll have a minter to enjoy ;)

if i took my car off the road for the winter it would be off the road for 12months of year :(

where is our summer??

yeah mine is coming off due to needing a rear panal as all the seams are rotting away plus the n/s rear quarter has been replaced at some point and the pug over the joins has cracked and the roof hasrust spots on it :sad:

Mine's getting SORN'd in a month until next year. Done 900 miles in it this year. Never used it at all last year or the 2nd half of 2010. used it a fair bit early 2010 and mid to late 2009, was SORN'd the whole of 2008 and the 1st half of 2007 :shock:

Im quite suprised by that. A couple of weeks ago i got the front lower panel / radiator support for £125 from mitsi which i didnt think was too bad. Was available next day too.

I couldnt find any pattern ones for what i wanted. Rang mitsubishi as a last resort and was pleasantly suprised. Most places i spoke to said the best panel supplier in the country went under at the start of this year so most things now have to be genuine.
